VISIONS
Vedran Jankovic Zagreb, Croatia
A college project asked Jankovic to show “the illusion of
space,” so he and two friends decided to reimagine a zebra.
One of them painted a hand with intricate stripes while
Jankovic found a location and composed the shot.
Karl Ander Adami Tallinn, Estonia
As a rule, Adami’s grandmother curls her hair before going
into town. “She wants to show off her best look in case
she runs into her girlfriends,” he says. Adami grabbed his
camera and asked her to stand still.
Khalid Rayhan Shawon Dhaka, Bangladesh
For more than a year Shawon has photographed people
living around Bangladesh’s Hazrat Shahjalal International
Airport. In a roofless building, he waited several days to cap-
ture his country’s flag and a flying plane in the same frame.
“Khalid [photo above] sent us photos
of airplanes before, but this one had
more depth. You can tell he waited for
a rare moment. The plane, the flag, the
woman—the elements all work together.”
— Jeanne Modderman, National Geographic photo editor
